Add masked arrays #8979

Please: Add masked arrays (numpy.ma.array) it doesn't have to even be a new feature, it can be done by simply adding mask and fill_value arguments to the existing arrays (jax.numpy.array)

[x] Check for duplicate requests.

Thanks for the feature request!

I think adapting everything to work with masked arrays might take quite a bit of work. This may remain out of scope for us for a while. There's a lot of other high-priority work on our plates.

Some of this functionality could likely be implemented as a separate library on top of JAX itself.

Is this planned for any time in the future?
